Identify the correct statements from the following : Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A, B and C Only
  2. A, B and D Only
  3. B, C and D Only
  4. A, C and D Only

Answer

(2) A, B and D Only

Solution

A. Correct – the uncertainty principle is significant for microscopic particles such as electrons.

B. Correct – for the same type of orbital, size increases with n, so 2px is smaller than 3px.

C. Incorrect – the energy of an orbital depends on the nuclear charge. As per NCERT, the energies of orbitals of the same subshell decrease with increase in atomic number (Z); so the 2s orbital of Li (Z = 3) is lower in energy than the 2s orbital of H (Z = 1).

D. Correct – Cr (Z = 24) is [Ar] 3d5 4s1 (extra stability of half-filled d subshell).

∴ Correct statements: A, B and D

Answer: (2)
